Arer there any new intel 875P chipset drivers out there?
I dont see any on Asus's site..
Where can I find them,or are the ones on the install disc the best to use?
 
I don't think there really are any "drivers" for this chipset (or most Intel
ones) per se, just INF files to allow Windows to recognize the chipset
components. (Except if you choose to install the Intel Application
Accelerator software.) So if Windows recognizes the chipset devices
properly, there is nothing to gain by updating them.

All chipsets require drivers. Some just happen to be included in the
OS. The ones for the 865/875 are not for the most part, so the INF is
absolutely required. While it's true that the INF is just that, an INF
(by default at least), without it Windows won't know that the AGP
controller is an AGP controller.
 
I tried the ones that Philip offered a link to and lost alot in my benchmark
scores..I tried reinstalling the ones off the Asus install disc and I still
have low scores..
How can I fix this without having to reinstall my OS?
